One of my customers is a hardware development team and they use some very unique
EDA build tools to do their build.

They would like a complete warnings report of their build. Right now, the
warnings plugin
only finds 2 of their compiler warnings (which happen to be 'GCC like') . I
setup the warnings plugin
to scan the console log and use all parsers. The problem is that the existing
parsers arent picking up all the warnings.
Is there a way to define my own warning parser class? A generic/user-defined
parser option in the parsers
drop-down along with a pattern field in the warnings plugin configuration would
be awesome.

Here are some examples of warning patterns in the build log which the warnings
plugin isnt finding...

#1 warning type not found by plugin

Warning-[TMBIN] Too many bits in Based Number
/projects/mpgIP/users/mpg_hw/sspi/verification/sv/bench/models/i2s/a_codec.v,
780
The specified width is '12' bits, actually got '16' bits.
The offending number is : '0000'.
Warning-[UNKWN_IGOPTS] Unknown option(s) ignored
...
Warning-[ENBL_OPTS] Enabling option(s)
...

#2 warning type not found by plugin

• • • • • Warning: +memcbk/-debug* will not enable toggle coverage on MDA please
          use -cm_tgl mda to enable it
        • Warning:

          passed with option -cm_hier is nonexistent

#3 warning type not found by plugin
Warning: $fsdbDumpfile - One FSDB file has already opened for dumping.

And here is the Hudson warnings plugin output at the end of the job..

[WARNINGS] Parsing warnings in console log...
[WARNINGS] Found 2 annotations (0 new, 0 high, 2 normal, 0 low)
[WARNINGS] Not changing build status, since no threshold has been exceeded

It found these two and categorized them as GCC which is fine...
